Penetrators are permitted into the museomound free. "

I love this for so many reasons - the self-referential "jamey", the alliteration, and the bubbling up of the sexual in particular. And that last sentence!

I am impressed with how much of the old HIS-story issues, and all that Post-Colonial theory which abounds these days, is pre-figured here..
